Peerless Taoist

An elder questioned: "His age is about the same as the Young Master's. At such an age, even if he is a genius, he won't be able to achieve much. Ancestor, aren't you being a little too cautious?"    

The Profound Spirit Ancestor shook his head and then called over a disciple.    

"Tell the elders what you saw." The Profound Spirit Ancestor said.    

The disciple who was summoned was Xu Chun, who was talking to Lu Yu on the first floor.    

The people around him were all big shots of the Dinghai Sect. Xu Chun felt pressured. He didn't dare to be negligent and told them everything he knew.    

"You mean it took him less than an hour to finish reading 180 books on the first floor?"    

"It only took him two hours to pass the second and third floor?"    

After Xu Chun's reminder, many Elders finally reacted.    

Every floor of the Hidden Book Pavilion had extremely strict requirements and restrictions.    

If one didn't finish reading at least a hundred books, they wouldn't be able to pass and enter the next floor.    

Although Lu Yu was an outsider, he was able to appear on the eighth floor. This meant that he had reached the eighth floor by force!    

"How is this possible..."    

Many people could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.    

This was the first time Lu Yu had come to the library!    

"Could he have used some sort of cheating method to deceive Fu Lu, who was behind the book?" Elder Lin Song said in a deep voice.    

Xu Chun explained, "The elder misunderstood. After he left, I carefully examined every book. The Fu Lu on it was not destroyed."    

At this point.    

Xu Chun suddenly recalled the scene of Senior Brother Li being forced back by the force emitted from Lu Yu's body.    

The force emitted from Lu Yu's body was like a divine bull that had descended to the world. His strength was boundless, and his aura could swallow mountains and rivers. It was completely the power of the Divine Bull Heaven Trampler when cultivated to the limit.    

Other things could be faked, but the pure and powerful force that erupted from Lu Yu's body could not be faked.    

"Elder Lin Song, how long did it take you to pass the first floor?" Someone asked.    

Lin Song's expression was grim as he said, "I entered the Clan when I was at the Origin Core Realm. I stayed on the first floor for five months before entering the second floor."    

All the Elders fell silent.    

Elder Lin Song was considered a genius amongst the Elders.    

Many of the people present couldn't even reach Lin Song's record, let alone be compared to Lu Yu.    

"Could it be that we really let this person stay in the library? After all, there are still some of my Ding Hai Sect's secret Cultivation Methods there."    

An elder said in a deep voice.    

At this moment, Dinghai Master, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "It doesn't matter if he reads those books."    

Dinghai Master looked at Ancestor and continued: "Ancestor is preparing to open the library and let the various sects send out their outstanding disciples to learn and explore, and to comprehend the Cultivation Methods together."    

What?    

Shock appeared on the faces of the Elders present.    

One of the Elders even said loudly, "This can't be done. The Cultivation Methods are the foundation of our Dinghai Sect. If other sects learn it, wouldn't it affect the status of our Dinghai Sect?"    

"If it was before, of course we would prevent others from secretly learning it. It's just that the world has changed now."    

The Profound Spirit Ancestor looked at the sky and let out a long sigh, "The number of demons is increasing. In just this month alone, five strongholds of our Dinghai Sect have been broken through by the demons."    

"Although the Nine Great Sects of the Spiritual Mountain Continent occasionally have conflicts, we still have to put aside our prejudices and fight together."    

"Otherwise, you and I will die when the Evil Devils break through the Spiritual Mountain Continent."    

Hearing the words of the Profound Spirit Ancestor, no one said anything else.    

The Evil Demon was like a sharp sword, floating above the heads of everyone on the Spirit Mountain Continent.    

In front of the evil demon, no matter what happened, it could be wiped away. After all, it was a matter of life and death.    

On the 9th floor of the library.    

Lu Yu did not pay any attention to the Profound Spirit Ancestor. His heart was completely immersed in the ancient artifact in front of him.    

Here, he saw several staffs, wooden fish, a praying mat, a kasaya, and other items. All of them were stained with mud, and there was a faint Buddhist light coming from them.    

They used to belong to a Buddhist expert, but unfortunately, Buddhist experts disappeared without a trace. They were also buried in dust and couldn't see the light of day.    

Lu Yu was silently examining it when his mind suddenly moved. He found a lotus lamp among the antiques. It was gilded with gold and had the shape of a lotus spread out. There were Buddhist Sanskrit carvings on it. Although it was covered in dust, there was an immortal power hidden within.    

This was not an ordinary treasure. Lu Yu was very careful and injected a strand of Buddhist energy into it.    

In an instant, the lotus lamp gave off a dazzling light. From the light, there was a Buddha statue sitting cross-legged with a kind expression on its face. Suddenly, the majestic sound of chanting came from the surroundings.    

In the area of the ninth floor, countless rows of bookshelves began to tremble. The loud Buddhist voice seemed to have an immortal sound wave that echoed for a long time without stopping.    

Lu Yu sat in front of the lotus lamp, accepting the baptism of the Buddhist chant. His heart was like clear water, without any ripples.    

The compassionate and solemn chanting lasted for two hours before stopping.    

On the lotus lamp, there was a small flame burning. It was surrounded by a warm and holy aura. It was like all the troubles were gone.    

"Where did the ancient Buddhas go? Why did they leave an immortal weapon here..."    

Lu Yu's heart was in turmoil.    

Although this lotus lamp was broken, it was still an Immortal Weapon that contained extremely terrifying power.    

Such a precious treasure had been lost here like a pearl covered in dust.    

However, Lu Yu wanted to know where the ancient Buddhas were now.    

According to Monkey, the image of Heavenly God Tai Qing, Li Boyang, used the Eight Trigrams Furnace to refine the buddhas. However, Monkey was lucky enough to knock over the Eight Trigrams Furnace and escape.    

If that was the case, why would such a continent appear here?    

There were so many mysteries surrounding Lu Yu. It was as if the truth was right in front of him, but there was always a veil between them.    

Suddenly, Lu Yu raised his head and looked in a direction.    

At this moment, in the deep sky outside the Ding Hai Sect's camp, darkness gradually enveloped everyone's vision.    

Countless cultivators gathered on the walls of the Dinghai Sect's stronghold. Nervousness and panic circulated in their hearts like a nightmare.    

The night covered the last bit of light, and the light array formed by spells couldn't dispel the fear in everyone's hearts.    

They saw mountains of figures appear in the unknown darkness, and they couldn't see the end of them.    

A terrifying roar that seemed to be able to devour the sun and moon shook the air.    

Countless demons were heading toward the Spiritual Mountain Continent.
